Gloss Black vs Matte Black

Covering comparison · updated août 2026

Gloss Black (#0C0B0C) and Matte Black (#1C1C1C) sit at almost the same lightness, so the difference between them is hue and finish rather than how dark they read. Gloss Black comes in gloss; Matte Black in matte. Body shape, paint condition and the light you shoot in move both colours further than a swatch chip suggests. Seeing them on your own car settles it, free, in a couple of minutes.

Gloss Black vs Matte Black: the differences.

The differences between Gloss Black and Matte Black are hue and finish rather than depth — the two sit at almost the same lightness. The second is the finish: Gloss Black is offered in gloss, Matte Black in matte. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.
